Thursday's Training: Routine Practice; Back/Biceps/Calves

Workout #1
I didn't make it in to the gymnastics center last week, so I was ready to go this week despite my cold. I took it easy but did manage to re-choreograph the middle part of my routine! All I did was a 10-minute general warm-up w/ stretching, then 30 minutes of strength move segments and choreography.


Workout #2
Today's workout was back, biceps and calves. I couldn't hit it as hard as I wanted to because of the darn head cold I'm getting over, but it was still a pretty good workout. I did lower the number of sets and the intensity was about 95%.
